Project Costing
• Costing is based on written and
graphic materials, photographs and
an outline specification.
• “Order of Magnitude” costing is
appropriate for a feasibility study.
• Don’t compromise your vision!
Consider the costs as a tool to refine
the vision!
• We develop breakout costs for all
“wish list” items and review with the
client before making decisions to cut
or reduce your goals.
• Build in escalation costs that will
allow you to track the costs for
several years.
34. • Seeking Council endorsement
• The presentation imperative
• Fundraising (it’s a professional skill)
• Internal organization CEO/Deputy

• Partnerships
• Costing vs. Funding
